I enjoyed your discussion about your active role in crafting your professional image (via personal portfolio, LinkedIn and Dribble) - and how this fits into the larger whole of your career as a UX designer. You make an interesting point about feeling uncomfortable when seeing your design work in Google image results. However, this would have a been a nice opportunity for you to examine how your design work (past and present) serves as a reflection of your identity. Also, I wonder: what might your design work say about personality or your non-professional identity? Nevertheless, you are very effective in tying this discussion back to your belief that users should have control over the data that can be found online. With respect to your claim that “while a large part of [your] identity is hidden, the one [you] do show is authentic” - I feel that you there should be further explanation. This is a relatively controversial statement. How can your online identity be authentic if a large part of it is hidden? Ultimately, you successfully develop connections between your experience with looking into your data identity and several Floridi concepts. Your writing is very clear and concise as well. | I enjoyed your discussion about your active role in crafting your professional image (via personal portfolio, LinkedIn and Dribble) - and how this fits into the larger whole of your career as a UX designer.

Comment by Flannery O'Donnell:
Michele,
I thought that overall, you did a great job on this assignment. The writing flowed nicely, the photos were well chosen, and your writing style was strong. I really liked how you focused in on one part of your identity and its online presence: professionalism. It was interesting how your professional identity was much of what was represented on your google searches. I think it would be interesting if, in your revision, you discussed whether this was a complete representation of what you view as your "real self."
Additionally, I think this would be an even greater piece if you incorporated another course concept. One suggestion I have is to tie in some concepts from Oliver Haimson's article "Authentic Facebook Identity" in the section where you discussed your social media presence. You brought up authenticity in this section, and I think Haimson's article would connect nicely here. Just a suggestion, but, overall, really nice job.
